Land specializing in wet rice cultivation is supported with 1 million VND/ha/year.

The Government has just issued Decree 35/2015/ND-CP on management and use of rice-growing land, and support for rice-growing land.

Accordingly, the state budget will support localities producing rice with 1 million VND/ha/year for land specializing in wet rice cultivation. Based on the area of ​​rice land, the state budget will prioritize supporting rice production for localities (including investment and regular expenditure) through the state budget allocation norms.

In addition, the budget also supports 500,000 VND/ha/year for other rice-growing land, except for upland rice land that is spontaneously expanded without following the planning and land use plan for rice cultivation.

Regarding support for reclaiming and improving rice land, the state budget supports localities with 10 million VND/ha of rice land, except for upland rice land reclaimed from unused land or restored from abandoned land.

In case there are many different regulations, the principle applies that each piece of land is supported only once, the level of support is decided by the Provincial People's Committee. Support of 5 million VND/ha of land specializing in wet rice cultivation converted from single-crop wet rice land or land for growing other crops according to the planning and plan for using rice land.

This Decree takes effect from July 1, 2015.
